From naming body parts to talking about appropriate touch, <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">they begins<\/span> to learn about consent and body autonomy at a very young age. So when a relative asks <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> for a hug\u2014and <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">they says<\/span> \u201cno\u201d\u2014 what should you do?<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Does your child have to hug relatives?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, parents should not force children to give hugs or kisses to people they do not want to, even grandparents. The AAP encourages parents to constantly reinforce the idea that a toddler\u2019s body is <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> own, and <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">they can<\/span> protect it. If you ask <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> to hug <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> grandparents goodbye and <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">they says<\/span> no (either with words or body language), it\u2019s important to honor <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> wishes. <\/span>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Establishing your rules<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Parents need to ask themselves, \u201cDo I expect my child to hug or kiss a relative just because I say so?\u201d If the answer is \u201cno,\u201d it\u2019s important to then talk with <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> about what may happen during greetings and goodbyes beforehand, so you have the opportunity to explain to <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span> (without doing so while standing in front of the relative), why it\u2019s <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> choice to pick how <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">they wants<\/span> to show affection.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Ways to communicate your preferences to family<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Explaining your wishes to friends and family is crucial if you want them to respect your decision to not force your child to give hugs. Being confident and kind in your approach with relatives, increases the chance they will hear you and honor your rules.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And while some people may not understand your policy at first, most will agree that respect should not be equated with consenting to unwanted physical contact. A relative who understands this way of thinking will be more than happy with a verbal \u201cgoodbye,\u201d followed by a wave or high-five.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Alternatives to hugs<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ask <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> to wave goodbye and say \u201csee you next time.\u201d <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">They can<\/span> also give a high-five, handshake, or fist bump, if you still want <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span> to respond with more than a verbal goodbye. Drawing a picture ahead of time for a relative you are visiting is another way for your child to show <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">they cares<\/span>. And when you\u2019re with family, you can simply ask <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span>, \u201cWould you like to give grandma a hug, handshake, or a high-five?\u201d All of the choices show respect to the adult and allows your child to express <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> feelings. <\/span>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Refusing physical affection should not be equated with bad manners. Children can (and should) be polite and respectful while still maintaining their own personal boundaries. If we force children to show physical affection when they\u2019re uncomfortable, we take the chance they will begin to ignore their own intuition. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if you are still in need of guidance about what to do, it\u2019s always best to consult with your child\u2019s pediatrician on how to proceed.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>About the author:<br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"il\">Sara<\/span><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>Lindberg is a freelance writer focusing on parenting, health, and wellness.
